The Templar Legacy (Abridged): A Novel Audiobook

" Kind of Davinci's Code & Indiana Jones rolled into one. Intense read that makes you think. "

" I would not recommend this book to anyone else. The plot was predictable, the characters stereotyped, and the dialogue stilted. On top of that, the author seemed to have a not-so-hidden agenda. Listening to the audio version actually made it sort-of funny; the reader was predictable and stiff. The accents he put on were awkward. Again, I would not recommend this book. "

" I enjoy these historical fiction novels. Like the Cotton Malone character. Glad to see him in action again in Alexandria Link. "

" Strange as it sounds, I hate Cotton Malone, but this was quite good. "

" This was an interesting "thriller" to read. However, it just kept feeling like a Dan Brown (Angels and Demons) wannabe... I don't think I will read others by Steve Berry. "

" I am interested in all things Templar right now, and this book was a nice diversion. It is fiction, of course, but the author's note at the end describes the factual accounts in the story - there were quite a lot. But otherwise, this is not an extraordinary story, nor particularly well-written, but it kept my attention. Sort of. "

" Pretty much the same as other holy grail style book that I've read. I did enjoy it but I didn't find it remarkable. "

" Much Better than " The Third Secret".... "

" I enjoy this author. He takes unpopular and sometimes obscure theories and adds his own bit of historical fiction. Makes for a very fun read. This one was one of my favorites. "

" It was a fun, adventurous read. Reminded me of Angels and Demons. "

" Liked it. Pretty real characters and nice plot. Are templars the new background for suspense books now there's no East Germany? "

" Cotton Malone, retired federal agent, now bookseller in Denmark, follows his former boss on a quest to find what her late husband was searching for. The treasure of the Templars. Very interesting read! "

" Very entertaining, fast paced novel. Enjoyed. "

" Berry introduces a new character, Cotton Malone, a retired government agent turned bookseller who's recalled to duty to solve a murder connected to the Knights Templar. "

" This was an excellent book. I love the mystery surrounding the Templar Knights. This book had plenty of real world history and facts to back up the fictional plot. "

" Fun story for any conspiracy theorists out. "

" I think I was tired of D'Vinci style stories so it was probably a better read than I experienced. Why question so much of the relgious past? "

" Not bad. Worth the read. Took me a little while to get into the characters. "

" Makes you think about the possibilities. Great for debate "

" This is my second Steve Berry book and I enjoyed it as much as the first. ITs a good, light read. "

" Cotton Malone is one of the 4-5 series that I keep up with each time a new novel comes out. This is the book that started it off. Cotton is your standard ex-CIA / military guy now living in Copenhagen. Enjoyable fiction. "

" The author is a Russian scholar turned novelist and his books always have a mix of fiction and fact. This is the first in a series and they've all been pageturners. If you like Dan Brown then you'll like Steve Berry. "

" Fantastic, a very good plot. Really love it. "

" These books give new light to conspiracy theory ideas "

" interesting history-fiction series, wish i had more time to read "

" This is yet another book that aims to knock holes in the Catholic dogma. The last chapter is very interesting and to me entirely plausable. It just seemed to take too long getting there. "

" Surprisingly good read. I was reluctant to get into it at first because there's literally 1,000 pages. However, this book is entertaining enough to read through to the end. I had trouble putting it down. "

" I liked it really well it was the 2nd of his books that I read "

" I really like books that are historical fiction, and this certainly fit the bill. The plot is pretty suspensful but it would be boring for people who don't like this genre. But since that's not me, I'm re-reading it...for about the third time. "

" An awesome novel, with loads of historical facts in it.For all the fans of the Davinci Code & other templar books: you have got to read this one! "

" Audio Book. It was a pretty entertaining story but I couldn't get behind the hero. This might be because it was the abridged version. They take out all the character details and just leave you a story with no characters to get behind. Steve Berry also "

" Very complicated and the theology of things is beyond my education, but good. "

" I am not sure how to rate this book. There are some points of the books that I loved and could not put down. Then there are parts that all I could think while reading was why am I doing this to myself. Overall, I guess it was a good read. I was impressed with the factual details of the book. "

" I love books set in European locales and I like the premise of the book. I just didn't like the book. Maybe it was my mood at the time? I may try one again. "

" Great book full of mystery and intrigue. "
